The dlmchkpath Utility for Checking HDLM Paths

If you install or remove HDLM in a multi-path configuration, the disk might

become corrupted. Use the dlmchkpath utility to check HDLM paths and to

make sure that the system is in a single-path configuration. During an

upgrade installation, a re-installation, or removal of HDLM, the dlmchkpath

utility is executed automatically. If the system is in a single-path

configuration, the dlmchkpath utility displays nothing during an upgrade

installation, a re-installation, or removal of HDLM. A warning dialog box will

appear if the system is in a multi-path configuration.

However, when you use one of the following methods of installing HDLM and

the system is determined to be a multi-path configuration, the installation will

terminate without displaying any warning dialog boxes:

Upgrade installation using the unattended installation

Re-installation using the unattended installation

When the dlmchkpath utility is executed manually, a message will appear as

shown in the execution example in
